1. 6.) Create initial timeline to product X

Survey Discussion Notes:

Need to identify who answers the survey - are they qualified

 Need to define the thresholds for the categories of things assessed in the survey (e.g., "minor shortages" vs "shortages") - may have an answer from ACEP this week

 Need to translate the model into an algorithm that calculates organizational stage based on answers to the survey - if you reach any point in a stage it triggers the entire stage

Need to answer the "so what" question

1. Awareness for an organization's own planning

1. Load balancing - follow on: how do we present and manage load balancing to the population?

1. Access to external (e.g., gov't provided) resources

1. Recommendations/best practices for how to operate at level X and/or avoid level X+1

 Recommend keep organizational assessment and individual health status as two separate things - 2 different apps for now
